Default CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS...

Are there harder control arm bushings available to replace the stock bushings?

Where can we get them and what are the part numbers...

:iagree:
Had them installed at the end of July. I have the base suspension springs and Bilstein Sport shocks. The new bushings almost makes it seem like I upgraded the springs.
